My Sapphire Black M3

DRVNM3 · 04-13-2015, 06:55 AM

Hi guys,

I have recently photographed my M3 at night and thought I would share these images with you guys.

Shot with my Nikon D800 and 24-70mm F2.8 lens. Strobed the car for multiple exposure as well.

I have very much enjoyed this car for 9 months now. What a great driving machine!

Enjoy!

nice photo effects.

IM2C · 04-13-2015, 08:09 AM

Nicely done. Constructive critique: Composition usually works better if you live more room in front of the car than behind. I really like how you handled the lighting.
You mean 2.8, right?

GOLFFRR · 04-13-2015, 08:14 AM

congrats and welcome to the BSM club. Cool photos also

Great looking photos! I wish the car was a tad brighter but that is just a minor detail. Superb!

Nice body (car and camera)
